2015 Chateau Gazin

James Suckling

Lots of cedar, tea-leaf and hazelnut character and ripe fruit aromas. Citrus peel, too. Full body, round and juicy tannins and a flavorful finish. Smoky undertone. This is structured and so complex. Drink in 2023.

A dense and powerful Gazin with so much fruit and tension to the wine. Full body, velvety yet lively tannins and a very flavorful finish. So much generosity here. One of the best Gazins ever. 97.5

Panos Kakaviatos - Decanter

The large scale here is undeniable, yet there is fine harmony and opulence. A well- structured blend of 95% Merlot, with 5% Cabernet Franc, showing vivid aspects of juicy dark cherry and damson. The density is impressive, as is the length. Excellent value for the price.

Mike Bennie - The Wine Front

Pomerol vibes. Easier access, juicy, slightly shorter. A 26 hectare estate right next to Petrus. Rarified turf. Plush sort of feel and then the tannin corset tightens.This is a wine that feels pure, fruit-driven, gently sweet in fruit character but layers in spice, some earthy notes, a touch of herbs and some amaro-like characters, yet retains freshness and liveliness alongside. The feel is superb here, texture so silky, approach delicious. This is great.
